SAFETY

Operator Safety

Rider Capacity

Your snowmobile is designed for up to two riders. A decal on the
console indicates that the vehicle is designed for one operator and one
passenger only.

WARNING! Operating improperly with a passenger could cause loss of control

and result in serious injury or death. Control becomes more difficult with two

people on board. More space is required to make turns, and longer distances

are needed for stopping. Make sure the passenger remains seated behind the

driver, facing forward, with both feet placed firmly on the running boards. Slow

down and avoid “jumping” the snowmobile.

Snowmobiles designed for two riders should never be operated with
more than two people on board. Slow down! Control becomes more dif-
ficult with two people on board. More space is required to make turns,
and longer distances are necessary for stopping.
